Friday Morning Coffee

March26th,2010

So, my rule is this, as long as it’s still Friday before noon, I can still call these posts Friday Morning Coffee. It’s 11:55 and I’m drinking water.

I drink a lot of water.

Anyway, today is the last day of Spring Break for the kids. Brian is at work and is scheduled for a long day. But that is only because he isn’t supposed to return to work until May 3rd. He’ll be taking two weeks vacation and working from home for two weeks and this is good, very good.

(I can’t wait to see him see the baby for the first time. I feel so lucky to be able to witness such an amazing moment.)

My body is very, very ready for this baby. I have to imagine that if I weren’t having a c-section on Monday that labor would be soon after. Yesterday they did a bio-physical profile on the baby, where they look at the fluid levels, how he’s breathing, how he’s moving, all sorts of good stuff. They couldn’t even see his face because he is down so low.

Which means … OW.

Right now, as I sit in a comfortable chair, I can honestly say I can’t remember being much more uncomfortable than this in my life. But it’s okay because I have no choice. IT’S JUST OKAY.

In a few minutes I’m going to make lunch for the kids and then we are going waddle to our favorite cupcake shop. Well, they’ll run, I’ll waddle, maybe crawl, maybe just sit at the front door begging someone to bring cupcakes to us. Either way, THEY WILL HAVE CUPCAKES.

I had plans to pick up a few spring-y things for the house, but right now the last thing on my mind is spring-ifying my house. I feel my mood suddenly shifting, it probably has to do with the pressure on my bladder and pubic bone (and back and legs), either way, I leave you with this.

I can’t wait to see the three of them wearing these together. I bought these from this Etsy shop – I LOVE them.
